Freighter Attempts

Plane in Pacific
San Francisco (UB The
freighter SS Harry Culbreath
attempted Saturday to salvage a
civilian-owned PBY Catalina fly
ing boat which landed safely on
the ocean 500 miles offshore Fri

tempt to fly on one engine.
Crew Rescued
The Culbreath rescued the am
phibian's four-man crew after a
Coast Guard rescue plane guid
ed the Catalina to the freight
er's area. The crew stepped into
the Culbreath's power launch
without even getting their feet
wet.
A radio report from the ship
said the Culbreath's crew was
attempting to take aboard the
disabled flying boat by means of
a crane. .
The twin-engined World War
II navy patrol boat was being
ferried to California from Guam
where it had been purchased
from the government by the

Angeles.

ot Clark Dixon, Danville, Calif.;
co-pilot Chris Angeles, Palo Al
to, Calif.; navigator Robert
Edgerly, Soquel, Calif., and en
gineer Russell Verner, Guam.
The plane landed safely at
2:04 p.m. (FST) five hours after
reporting to the Coast Guard
that it had lost an engine 1000
miles west of San Francisco and
its airspeed and altitude were re
duced to the "critical point" of
90 knots and 2000 feet v
Seven-State Bus
Strike Averted
In Late Agreement
San Francisco (U.R) A
strike that would have tied up
Pacific Greyhound operations in
several Western states was avert
ed Friday night when AFL of
fice employees ratified a last
minute agreement.
The union membership, num
bering about 300,' accepted a
company offer providing for an
average wage increase of $20
per month spread over a two
year' period. The action fore
stalled a midnight strike dead
line.
Office Members
The ' contract covers office
members of the Amalgamated
Motor Coach Employees Union
at San Francisco, Oakland, Los
Angeles and Phoenix. However,
it was assumed that drivers in
seven Western states would lave
refused to cross their picket
lines.
Under terms of the agreement
the average wage increase would
be $12 a month fo the first
year, with an additional $8
monthly increase the second
year.
Greyhound also agreed to ab
sorb the full coft of a hospital
insurance plan for which each
employee has been paying $5.25
a month; to pay the cost of a
$1.66 monthly premium group
life insurance policy for each
member; and to give regular
cost of living increases based on
the Bureau of Labor Statistics
index.

U.S. Will Not
Appeal Decision
Clearing Bridges
San Francisco (U.R) The
government has decided not to
appeal a District Court decision
which cleared longshore labor
leader Harry Bridges of charges
he ' obtained U.S. citizenship
fraudulently. ' -
Chief Assistant U.S. Attorney
Lynn Gillard, who prosecuted the
government's civil denaturaliza
tion suit against Bridges last
summer, said the Solicitor Gen
eral's office in Washington noti
fied him of the decision Friday.
Closes Case
"This closes out the Harry
Bridges case so far as the gov
ernment is concerned," Gillard
said.
Bridges, presently in Hono
lulu, said of the government's
decision: ,
"Its good hews for the union
and all those who supported the
fight so long and its about
time." '
Federal Judge Louis E. Good
man ruled July 29 that the 55-year-old
Bridges, a native of
Australia, didMiot swear falsely
when he declared on his applica
tion for United States citizenship
that he had never been a mem
ber of the Communist party.
The government initiated the
civil suit after a criminal con
viction was set aside by the U.S.
Supreme Court on grounds the
statute of limitations had ex
pired.
